Hmm … where will he go?
Following being cut from the New York Giants recently, quarterback Daniel Jones is reportedly ready to pick his next franchise.
According to NFL insider Josina Anderson, the 27-year-old has “zeroed on a ‘leading’ choice” with a league source who is high-ranked stating that Jones plans on “telling teams tomorrow.” (RELATED: Kid Falls Out Of Stands After Trying To Greet Kansas City’s Tershawn Wharton Following Chiefs-Panthers Game)
Anderson also reports that the Las Vegas Raiders have interest in Jones’ services following their QB Gardner Minshew breaking his collarbone in Sunday’s game.
Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer recently reported that a total of 10 franchises have contacted Jones, with one of them potentially giving him an opportunity to be a starter. However, Glazer didn’t mention what team exactly. Adam Schefter of ESPN also issued a recent report that both the Minnesota Vikings and Baltimore Ravens “are two of the likeliest teams to land” the former Giant. Schefter also noted that Jones wants to sign with a team that’s a postseason contender.
A high-ranking league official told me they have the impression QB Daniel Jones has zereod on a “leading” choice.
While another high-ranking league source told me their understanding is Jones “is telling teams tomorrow.”

The Baltimore Ravens and Minnesota Vikings are two of the likeliest teams to land free-agent quarterback Daniel Jones, per sources. But they are hardly the only ones. Jones wants to sign with a playoff contender, and what happens in Week 12 is expected to influence his decision. pic.twitter.com/QS9npZJO34

I can see Daniel Jones going to Minnesota to just sit back and wait for Sam Darnold to flub things up, which could happen easily, and just like that, Jones is the leader of a playoff team. Smooth.
